My JCW Coupe is on the way !!

I am excited. My lightning blue JCW Coupe is on the way. Went to order it and the dealer found one virtually identical to what I was going to order nearby. So instead of waiting 8 weeks, it should only be a couple days. AWESOME! I am really looking forward to the weekend now.

My wife has had a Countryman for a year now and I've always liked driving hers. Steering and handling compared very favorably to my Mitsubishi 3000 VR4 (that I am getting rid of to get the Coupe). Although I have promised my wife that I will not mod the Coupe the way that I did the VR4 (at least until it is out of warranty ... lol).

Welcome and congrats! You'll love the Coupe more than you can imagine. Given its a JCW you'll love it even more! Best car I've ever owned and not a day goes by, no matter how mundane the drive, that I don't get a huge kick out of being behind that wheel!

Enjoy!

Good luck with that.

I got rid of my Stealth to buy my MINI. Never regreted it.

I am getting really excited. The dealer told me that they will have my car here tomorrow, prepped and ready for Sat morning. Wifey is busy so I called in favors to get me to the dealership so I could get the car and drive it over the weekend. JCW, here I come !!

Awesome. Mine got loaded on a boat recently so I've got a few more weeks. Enjoy it!
